I have worked with the WY-85 for several years (and the WY-185 for a
while too). I vaguely remember talking to them once about problems that
happened if you typed while the terminal was receiving and displaying
data. In fact, I remember that the 85 used to "lock up" for about a
second, then continue redrawing. The manuals also state that getting in
and out of Set-up during data reception is not recommended.
My gut feel is that they simply may have done a poor job on this
throughout their product line. I don't know the first thing about
your application, however, so there very well could be other causes.
For your sake, I hope I'm wrong, though. Best of luck to you.
